My baby just had her first birthday last Saturday though her real birthdate is October 03, and we anticipated that since it falls on Tuesday and guests might not be able to attend because of multitude of alibis: busy at work, traffic, unscheduled event, blah-blah-blah, we thought of moving the celebration to October 07 instead at The Legend Hotel in Mandaluyong City. Party starts at 2:30pm. And boy oh boy, these Filipinos really can't come on time. People started to be crowding the venue by 4pm (read: I paid for the party only up `til 7pm), and everything went smooth, at least. We invited 70 guests (the venue is only limited to 50 guests but we were able to maximize it to 70), but only 53 faces showed up. Only 53 most-special-valued-and-tested friends and relatives. I hope everyone enjoyed the party coz I really did. Just the thought of seeing your daughter enjoyed having kids and other people and friends attend her party is already an achievement to me. That was one unforgettable birthday.
For those who came, I sincerely thank you again for sharing your time with my daughter's first birthday. For those who promised to attend but didn't show up, thank you anyway. For those we were unable to invite because the venue is limited to chosen people only, you all have a place in my daughter's heart (she will realize that when she grows up). For those who didn't come because they really can't, we understand. We love you all. Thank you again.
Oh, by the way, those whose gifts were not yet given, you can send those to our place. Otherwise, if that is convertible to cash, just give me a ring and I'll provide you my account number. :o)
